Quick question. Where can I get news updates for what and where T-Mobile is releasing in their OTA update?
Just curious because I have a friend that got another OTA update, but failed. Wondering if its cause he's rooted? He's on a stock ROM with just root.

He's probably got a custom recovery too. Root alone doesn't seem to prevent the update.

I have been trying to install the latest ota update from T-Mobile on my sg 3 but after it downloads and I try to install it the phone restarts in CWM and I get a message saying can't verify signature. I toggle the signature verification in CWM but I get the same message, any idea what I may doing wrong or what I may need to do differently to have the update install?

If you are not using the stock recovery (not cwm), the ota update won't go through. You have to unroot and install stock recovery to get the ota to install

Just Odin the new root66 image. Its way faster than doing the OTA update. Make sure you do a factory reset afterwards too, so youll avoid any conflicts or unnecessary drains.
I have a question, did the JB update come with a radio update as well?

Yes. Easiest way to find out is just to check the modem thread.
I posted the modem yesterday morning.

I'm rooted and status says im modified... how can I get this update without plugging in Kies?
I think we will need to unroot, then do the update via ota.

Hey Guys,
Just heard that the update is coming to canada on Wednesday. Will I need to unroot my note 2 for the update to work? Can I use CF method to re root again once the update has completed?

As long as you have stock recovery you are good. However after the update you may loose root, and your device status may say modified unless you factory reset.

Remove root.
Then install update.
Reapply root.
I'd recommend a custom rom. You get so much more. And it's been multi Window 4.1.2 since October.

Is it okay if I update if I'm rooted and is there any reason not to?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
If you update with kies you will loose your root. You will hate to root it again.
Also, if you have a custom recovery the update will set the stock recovery.
But for the update, the multi windows is nice but not all app are compatible.
That's why I went to a custom rom with unlimited multi window.

So ota ill keep root? I also read the update caused weird battery life
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
I don't know for ota because my status was modified and I was not able to get the update. I had a custom recovery, that's why.
For the battery life, I can't help you for this. I kept this rom for about one day and now I run the international "custom" rom with unlimited multi window.
